Thank you @Jilly20. My song choices are WHEN YOU’RE SMILING by Louis Armstrong and TULIPS FROM AMSTERDAM by Max Bygraves. Tulips are my favourite spring flower. I am fascinated by looking inside them and seeing the beautiful patterns! Warm wishes, Willow X

Just catching up on Friday’s song choices. I now have Barry Manilow as my “ear worm” song for today. Singing along to it as I’m unpacking the weekly supermarket delivery :smile:

Hi All,

It seems to be quiet this evening so I thought I would suggest two words-WAITING and FUN.
I seem to have done a lot of waiting this week (a whole hour waiting to be called by a GP for my appointment. The GP was new and thought she had already seen me) and woukd rather do something more fun!
Here is Waiting in Vain by Bob Marley

And Cyndi Lauper’s Girls Just Want ti have fun

Thanks so much @helenfwallace for jumping into the breach, aren’t we all late to the party. Good words there, I think many of us know the feelings of waiting.
I had to grapple with whether it was Friday or not.

WAITING - The Kinks - Tired of waiting for you - The Kinks - Tired of Waiting For You (Official Music Video) - YouTube

FUN - Lionel Richie - All night long - Lionel Richie - All Night Long (All Night) - YouTube

I await others thoughts
